It is worth noting that the \volta command added by Dan Eble in the 2.23
development series does exactly the job requested here, if I understood
correctly.
\version "2.23.2"
\language english
{
\time 3/4
\repeat volta 4
{
a'4 b' c' |
b'4 c' d' |
}
\alternative {
\volta 1,3 {
e'4 f' g' |
}
\volta 2 {
d'4 c' b' |
}
\volta 4 {
g'4 a' b' |
}
}
c'2.
}

Wow! Thanks, Jean. Downloaded and (with some fits and starts) installed 2.23.2.
All the best,
Ralph
